Compounds
Chapter 13.3 Learning Goals
 Explain the significance of carbon in the
structure of many different molecules.
 Describe the importance of carbon to
living organisms.
 Compare and contrast the structure and
function of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins,
and nucleic acids.
Investigation 13C
Carbon and its Chemistry
 Key Question:
What are some common molecules that contain
carbon?
13.3 Molecules and Carbon
Compounds
 In addition to the elements from which it is
made, the shape of a molecule is also
important to its function and properties.
 We use structural diagrams to show the shape
and arrangement of atoms in a molecule.
13.3 Structural diagrams
 Two substances have the same formula as
aspirin, but not its pain relieving properties.
13.3 The chemistry of carbon


Carbon molecules come in three basic
forms: straight chains, branching chains,
and rings.
All three forms are found in important
biological molecules.
13.3 Organic compounds
 Organic chemistry is the branch of chemistry
that specializes in carbon compounds, also
known as organic molecules.
 Plastic, rubber, and gasoline are important
carbon compounds.
 Scientists classify the organic molecules in
living things into four basic groups:
carbohydrates, proteins, fats, and nucleic
acids.
13.3 Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are
energy-rich
compounds made
from carbon,
hydrogen, and
oxygen.

Carbohydrates are
classified as either
sugars or starches.
13.3 Carbohydrates

Carbohydrates are
mainly composed of
carbon, hydrogen,
and oxygen in a ratio
of about 1:2:1.

Glucose, C6H12O6, is a
simple sugar.

Table sugar is a
carbohydrate called
sucrose.
13.3 Carbohydrates

Starches are long chains of simple
sugars joined together.

Cellulose is the primary molecule in
plant fibers, including wood.
13.3 Lipids

Like carbohydrates,
lipids are energy-rich
compounds made
from carbon,
hydrogen, and
oxygen whose ratio
is much less than
1:2:1.

Lipids include fats,
oils, and waxes.
13.3 Lipids

A typical fat molecule has a two-part
structure:


glycerol
fatty acid chains
13.3 Saturated or unsaturated fat?
 In a saturated fat,
carbon atoms are
surrounded by as
many hydrogen
atoms as possible.
 An unsaturated fat
has fewer
hydrogen atoms
than it could have.
13.3 Proteins

Proteins are basic molecular building
blocks of cells and all parts of animals.

Proteins are among the largest organic
molecules.
13.3 Enzymes
 Only certain parts
of a protein are
chemically active.
 The shape of a
protein determines
which active sites
are exposed.
13.3 Proteins
 Protein molecules are
made of smaller
molecules called amino
acids.
 Your cells combine
different amino acids in
various ways to make
new and different
proteins.
13.3 Nucleic Acids
 Nucleic acids are compounds made of
long, repeating chains called
nucleotides.
Each nucleotide
contains:
1.
2.
3.
a sugar
molecule
a phosphate
molecule, and
a base
molecule.
13.3 DNA and nucleic acids
 DNA is a nucleic acid .
 A DNA molecule is put
together like a twisted
ladder.
This model shows a short
piece of the flattened DNA
ladder.
A DNA molecule is usually
twisted and much longer.
13.3 DNA
 Each side of the
ladder is made of:

5-carbon sugars
called deoxyribose
 and phosphate
groups.
13.3 DNA
 There are four
nitrogen bases in
two matched pairs.
The Spin on Scrap Tires
 As the number of cars on the
road increases each year, so
does the number of scrap tires.
For many years, the only disposal
options were to throw scrap tires
into landfills or burn them, which
caused air pollution. Today,
scientists and engineers are
coming up with innovative ways
to put a new spin on discarding
old tires.
